Tottenham have set their sights on Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt as a potential summer signing, according to Football Transfers.
The German international, with a market value of €35 million, has captured Spurs’ attention for his versatility and his ability to make an impact both in the midfield and the attacking third.
His adaptability and creative presence are seen as key assets that could bolster the club’s squad.
Tottenham target Julian Brandt to address creativity in midfield
Earlier this season, Tottenham struggled with the absence of James Maddison due to injury, exposing a lack of creativity in the midfield.
Brandt is viewed as a player capable of addressing this gap, while also offering Ange Postecoglou greater tactical flexibility.
Currently in the penultimate year of his contract with Dortmund, Brandt has been a consistent and reliable performer in the Bundesliga.
His ability to play in multiple roles makes him a highly valuable option, and Spurs are reportedly considering him as a long-term addition to strengthen their offensive and creative capabilities.
Brandt’s career trajectory highlights his quality and experience. He began his professional journey at Bayer Leverkusen, where he quickly established himself as a dependable contributor in both domestic and European competitions.
Since joining Dortmund in 2019, Brandt has cemented his reputation as a key playmaker, contributing with crucial goals and assists for the team.
Last season, the 28-year-old played a pivotal role in Dortmund’s impressive campaign, which included reaching the Champions League final. Across all competitions, Brandt contributed 10 goals and 16 assists in 47 appearances.
This season, he has continued to shine, registering two goals and five assists in 18 matches, taking his overall tally for the club to 42 goals & 55 assists in 234 games. (Transfermarkt)
The report adds that Tottenham may have limited resources for January reinforcements, which makes a move for Brandt in the summer a well-calculated decision. His experience, proven track record, and affordability compared to other high-profile targets make him an appealing option.
